stock equipment is weak, both tranny and tc.
there are several well recommended transmissions including

http://www.dreviltransmissions.com/home.html
http://www.apsprecision.com/Transmission.html
jasper..
i'm sure there are others.
they all provide an upgraded transmission like what should come stock.

its my opinion that getting another stock tranny from the junkyard is just that - more junk.

its also my opinion that a local shop can be a gamble. if you get a solid 3 year, 36k warranty, and you know someone that's had a good experience then maybe.. but as far as just picking a place out of the phonebook, i think i'd rather go with one of the experts above.
if you replace tranny by all means replace tc.
I run the "Pure Evil" 46re from Dr Evil and am very happy with it. it even came with a brand new custom built torque converter. Billy "aka Dr. Evil" has to be the smartest tranny man I've ever talked to.

APS IMO is the best way to go. Wayne is great to deal with. Can't say enough good about him.

Dr. Evil also seems to be a pretty good company.
